A retired helicopter, which was bought at an Ministry of Defence auction, has been transformed into a glamping pod.

The 17m (56ft) Royal Navy Sea King was bought by Stirling farmer Martyn Steedman for £7,000.

He has now had it converted into a holiday home, complete with a shower room and mini kitchen, which can sleep a family of six.

The helicopter retired from active service in 1994 and was used in naval training until 2002.
